The Canadian Football League had always been fond of its quaint approach to the sport—adding 10 yards to the field here, shaving off a down there, putting 12 players on the field instead of 11 because you can never have too many wideouts, having cavernous end zones and ways ...

Oh jeez, just spend too many minutes wondering why this code wasn’t working until I realized I had typed “theme.opml” instead of “theme.toml”. 🤪
